Personal explanation

MS LE COUTEUR (Murrumbidgee): I would like to make a personal explanation. Mr Parton suggested that the Greens had retreated from our policy about land tax exemptions for landlords who rent via community housing providers at an affordable rate. That is not in fact what happened or our policy, and I am pleased that eventually, after some confusion, the Assembly did pass a motion which committed the government to an implementation plan for this policy by the end of the sitting period in October.

Paper

MS FITZHARRIS (Yerrabi—Minister for Health and Wellbeing, Minister for Transport and City Services and Minister for Higher Education, Training and Research) (3.31): Madam Speaker, I seek your indulgence, not in response to question time but referencing debate earlier this morning. Mrs Dunne sought leave to move a motion requesting me to table the March report into the ACT Health system-wide data review. I would like to table that now. I present the following paper:
